Country artist JIMMY WAYNE will be a guest speaker at the TEDXNASHVILLE conference, which takes place at the TENNESSEE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER’s POLK THEATER in NASHVILLE on APRIL 9th. The events are designed for leaders in technology, entertainment, design, science, art, education, government, public policy, health care and other areas to share their ideas about creating positive changes in our society.
WAYNE will speak about his work last year with his MEET ME HALFWAY project for teens in foster care.
"Speaking at TEDX is an elite platform where many great speakers from all walks of life have spoken on just about every issue there is," WAYNE told THE BOOT blog. "I am humbled to have been chosen among other great speakers to speak about my life as a homeless teen and how an elderly couple planted the seed that inspired a sense of wonder which led me to where I am today."
Tickets are priced at $65. For more information on TEDXNASHVILLE, check out www.tedxnashville.com.
